The AFL is a rigged competition. We know that.
They need change at board level. I say...if you can't beat em...join em
I vote for Sainter_Dad to join the AFL commission and CURLY to be the new Chairman

Re: Higgins Alir incident
I get that people want to discuss Collard and other players who might replace Higgins, but what I don't get is ... Saints supporters accepting the fact that Higgins cops 3 weeks. It wasn't your traditional sling tackle. Higgins DID NOT lift Aliir. He did not sling Allir Every other dangerous tackle ...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
Payne argued that Jack began to 'rotate' him BEFORE Aliir attempted to kick the football In what fkn universe did Jack rotate Aliir's body? Jack has one of Allir's arms pinned and Jack pulls him in one direction. Straight down!! At the point where Allir is absolutely going to fall ( he's horizontal ...

Re: Higgins Alir incident
They're calling it a dangerous tackle due to Jack rotating Allir. So in their eyes it's a sling tackle. Watch Higgins body and arms. Do not fix your eyes on Allir's body or his head slamming the ground Does Jack twist his own body or change direction with the way he brings Aliir to the ground? https...

Re: Higgins Alir incident

Re: The Jimmy Situation
I agree. You make a valid point. Makes sense to ease him back for his own sake. We don't want him doing a hammy first game back. He hasn't played at any level for 8 weeks. He was denied any match practice when the club asked if he could play in a practice game for the VFL side a couple of weeks ago ...

Campbell deserves a game if Marshall is out. Agree particularly against the weaker sides we have coming up. But if RTB is true to form he will play a 1/2 fit Marshall, have him hobble around for half the night until they realise they have made a mistake. You left out the bit that describes what hap...

He's also a barometer for the team. You wouldn't call him a leader, but he provides the spark that inspires his team mates.
He'll be badly missed if he gets suspended

Re: Higgins Alir incident
I've been really impressed with Jack Higgins this year. Not so much his set shot kicking, but his work off the ball and his contest work including winning loose ground balls.
His score involvements, his goal assists and his work inside 50 have been very good too.

Aliir is being brought to the ground and he attempts to kick the footy while he is virtually horizontal. His whole upper body weight has now shifted direction because he chose...
